Expect the Eagles front 7 on defense to play lights out. They generally do. They are the best team in the NFL against running the ball.
Against Julio Jones receiving , well that's a different story. ATL needs to throw the ball on offense, not run it.
But......
Dan Quinn likes to establish the run first. This is a mistake against the Eagles front 7.
Julio Jones had 135 yards receiving for ATL in their last meeting, and I believe he could have had 200 plus.....had ATL thrown the ball more. But Quinn/Shanahan kept trying to run.....and Falcons lost.
In order for the Eagles to win they need a great game from their defense, and good play on special teams.
If ATL stays with the run too long...they are giving them 1/2 of what they need to win.
ATL is 11-0 this year when scoring 20 points or more. Their best chance of achieving that is passing the ball against the Eagles defense, not running it.
If ATL runs too much... the Eagles will have a much better chance of winning the game.
